Metal-organic frameworks have been exploited as excellent solid precursors and templates for the preparation integrated nanocatalysts with multicomponent hierarchical structures. Herein, a novel synthetic protocol has developed to fabricate versatile Zr-based solutions (such ZnO-ZrO2, Co3O4-ZrO2, CuO-ZrO2) via pyrolysis of Schiff base-modified UiO-66 octahedrons (size <100 nm), which were then utilized efficient catalysts CO2 hydrogenation. The base serves an effective bridge dope secondary...
This study investigated the effects of pyrolysis temperature on physicochemical properties pyrolyzed hydrochars (PHCs) and H2O2-catalyzed tetracycline (TC) degradation in a combined treatment with PHC CuxO@PHCs. The pH TC by CuxO@PHCs were also evaluated presence H2O2 compared that CuxO@GAC. To analyze their changes due to oxidant, carbocatalysts characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis, Fourier transform infrared...
This work presents the fabrication, characterization, and application of iron-coated carbon fiber (Fe@CF), synthesized in a facile situ iron reduction, for As(III) removal from an aqueous solution. The physico-chemical properties composite were characterized using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Adsorption studies evaluated batch experiments with respect to reaction time,...
Abstract Based on the DEA-Malmquist method, this study analyzes water resource utilization efficiency in six cities of northern Anhui region. The input indicators covered per capita resources, industrial consumption, agricultural domestic fixed assets investment, and number employees. output indicator was GDP each city. findings revealed that only Huaibei achieved according to DEA model, while other region did not exhibit same level efficiency. overall low, with significant variations among...
Abstract The deposition of slag from a realgar tailing mine has caused serious land degradation to those farming and mining coexisting areas. However, nanomaterial‐mediated biogeochemical arsenic cycle arsenic‐enriched soil was severely limited. In this study, the environmental impact graphene oxide (GO) reduced GO (rGO) on speciation mobilization Fe/As flooding investigated. Regarding overall performance, rGO exhibited more significant facilitation than mediating microbial reduction...
Anthraquinone-2,6-disulphonate (AQDS) and reduced Graphene Oxide (rGO) were selected to prepare the AQDS–rGO composites for investigating bioreduction performance of As(<sc>v</sc>)/Fe(<sc>iii</sc>) from flooded arsenic-rich soil.
To develop a new utilization approach of biogas residues, mesoporous activated biochar (MB) was prepared from residues and used for adsorption As(III) aqueous solution. MB-ZnCl2-600, which with 2.5 M zinc chloride solution at 600 °C, showed superior thermostability good distribution. The total surface area the reached up to 892.3 701.7 m2/g, respectively, its pore diameters mainly ranged 4 40 nm. Batch revealed high theoretic capacity 5861 μg/g. kinetic data fitting Elovich model, while...
Abstract The treatment of purified terephthalic acid wastewaters via anaerobic methods poses a significant challenge due to the slow degradation rate and extended reaction time required for most recalcitrant (TA). To address this challenge, study investigated efficacy various semiconductors in promoting TA determined their respective functional roles. Results showed that addition g‐C 3 N 4 increased methane production by 28.38%, indicating its potential as replacement TiO 2 degradation....
The treatment of purified terephthalic acid (PTA) wastewaters via anaerobic methods poses a significant challenge due to the slow degradation rate and extended reaction time required for (TA), most recalcitrant organic matter. To address this challenge, it is important seek out environmentally friendly, non-metal-based exogenous material, gain deeper understanding mechanisms involved in TA degradation. This study investigated efficacy various semiconductors, including TiO2, g-C3N4, CeO2...
